I may indeed look into a trip over from this brexitted tory wasteland 😡

A lot have come and voluntarily not left  ;D
Did you know that our government has had to hire over two hundred extra staff in our passport office since Brexit due to an unprecedented demand for Irish passports from British people who may qualify for one?

I read about the surge. Unfortunately I think I only have a bit of Welsh ancestry. I may have to emigrate to Anglesey. 😳

Nodogen(erina)? Familiar with foraminifers?



Welcome.

It is a beautiful sunny day in Belgium. Must find some happy music to go with it. Frank Bridge "Enter spring" will do, I think.

That CD, uniquely, combines Bridge's two greatest works. My favourite version of Oration is on Lyrita and Enter Spring on EMI.
